I can see that you’re worried about your RBC count. You mentioned that it seems high to you. However, according to the National Health Society (NHS), the normal RBC count in men is between 4.7 and 6.1 million cells per microlitre. So, your RBC count is actually within the normal range. I would also like to add that your hemoglobin count is a little low. The normal hemoglobin count for men is between 13.2 and 16.6 grams/dL, but there is nothing to worry about. Everything is fine.
